Hartal - a Kerala misnomer

this is a continous debate on Hartals in Kerala Hi all, Issues are numerous in Kerala... I had a new enlightenment after listening to Prasant's experiences in Kerala. I think its worth a thought by all of us.. Here in Kochin we say tht its a metro city or a cosmopoliton city, think about the transportation system..... First, all the bus boards are in malayalam only...How can a person frm outside kerala travel by our buses without anyone's help??? (this might be our method of compulsory teaching of malayalam...!??) Second, there is no share auto system in the city, which makes the travel expensive... Third, food prices....dont talk abt it...its very expensive and we know the reasons.. Garbage disposal..... dont ask..... salim kumar's famous dialogue (Kochi ethee.. Kochi ethee...) is not at all an exaggeration!!! street lights... dont ask... And the crown of it is bus strikes and hartals (® by kerala state)... How is Cochin going to be the investment destination??? God save G
